Beyond the Future

This will feature all of Beyond the Future’s bad ends. I’m making a post for it because I’m a completionist and Beyond the Future has a completion percentage as well as CGs for its bad ends щ(ಥДಥщ).

Not that it really matters since apparently the completion percentage counts every single line you’ve seen, even the ones that aren’t listed down as a “scene”. So I’ve completed all the scenes, yet I’m not technically completed because of these missing lines. But I give up since it’ll just piss me off to try and collect them. I can’t believe I’m at 91.17%.

Also, my bb Suri-chan was lovely enough to summarize the official short stories that can be found on Beyond the Future’s website. You can find her translations HERE.

Camus is Lilith’s childhood friend and the two of them have a very strong bond, because Camus has been with her since the time she was a small baby in Dodona. For Camus, Lilith is the first person to treat him as if he were someone important and needed since as a baby she wouldn’t let go of him and cried whenever he tried to leave. Optimistic and mischievous, he’s very protective of Lilith.

(Finally the last route! This long and painful journey has finally ended ヾ(*´∀｀*)ﾉ!! Although I will still need to summarize the bad ends, but they should be faster than the routes at the very least.)

Soo is a.. ridiculously idiotic character. Everyone else in the world and party calls him that and he even calls himself that. However, a more correct term for him would be an idiot savant. He thinks of himself as a jack of all trades, because he’s proficient at everything but he doesn’t need to expend any effort into it. He’s very kind though in a brotherly way.

(Let’s see if I can make this the quickest summary yet and to try and use just one line for every major plot point.)

Nayuta is the captain of the Holy Knights of Ingrid which makes him quite strict and harsh to everyone, including himself, as well as being very religious. However, underneath his seemingly cold exterior is a very passionate and kind man inside. He can be a bit of a bully towards Lilith, but he respects her as the Saint. The two of them find common ground in the fact that they’re both faithful to their gods.

(An even more speedier summary of the whole game is coming up, since if people have been following my posts on this game up to now I’m betting they’re really tired of reading the same scenes again and again (/ω＼). Here’s to saving the world for the fourth time!)

(Ahh, I’m really really sorry for how long this took to get out. My school semester is terrifying in its work load. For once my post is almost a reasonable length too, haha).

His favorite words are “.. because I’m a great sage” and it’s used to excuse him from anything he does and to explain everything that he does. His true nature and motives for joining the party remain a mystery to everyone, but he still manages to get close to the party in his own way. Everyone makes fun of him for being the suspicious, shady, evil-looking guy though. It doesn’t help his image when he always laughs sinisterly and tries his best to tease Lilith. Nico acts like.. one big troll.

(Nico shares the same choices and route as Nate up to the point where Nate asks Lilith why she saved the wolf pup in the desert. And so I’m just going to start Nico’s route from there. If curious about the details leading up to the diverge then readers can look at Nate’s post.)

What can I say? I definitely feel like Kirite is the canon route of the story. His character and past is immaculately intertwined with the main plot and his personality seems to mesh with Lilith’s personality perfectly. They bring out the best in each other and their affection for one another is very pure and earnest. Kirite is terrible at showing his emotions and talking but he manages to show his kindness through many small gestures that Lilith manages to pick up on. PLUS SAKURAI’S VOICE IS SEXY WHAT MORE NEEDS TO BE SAID?

(Since I basically wrote out the whole common route in Nate’s route, Kirite’s post will only have a rough outline of their adventure. This allows me to make the post shorter and focus more of my attention on the details in Kirite’s individual scenes. Therefore if readers want more details about the adventure and group interactions then they should read Nate’s route.)

He’s a werewolf assassin, but despite his scary sounding job he’s a quite a relaxed and collected character. He enjoys teasing the other characters and doesn’t have a problem in protecting the heroine. However, because he’s a werewolf he has some problems with understanding and dealing with humans. He’s completely inexperienced with love too and so he blushes and stammers a lot. Overall, while I loved him for his tail and ears his story wasn’t as romantic as I was expecting. But this game has amazing character development and it was completely heartwarming seeing how he developed. Personally, I like his good ending better than his best one.

First Impressions. He’s surprisingly not as annoying as one would think. He can take care of himself and he treats Lilith very kindly though he likes to tease her. He has a lighthearted attitude and it seems like it’d take something big happening in order to make him become serious.

First Impressions: His last name.. (｡_｡). His favourite line is also 「やれやれ」 which is sort of an onomatopoeia to imply annoyance. He appears to have come from another place and he has the most knowledge out of everyone. He has enormous self-esteem and he doesn’t have problems with breaking as many laws as he needs to in order to achieve his goals. His fighting style involves magic and magical guns.

First Impressions. I love him, I love him, I love him (〃ﾟ艸ﾟ):;*! He’s a professional at what he does and he doesn’t let his emotions influence him unduly. He’s extremely swift and skilled with his bow and knife, but he’s not overconfident nor does he brag. At a glance, it’s obvious that he’s not human. His back story also reveals how gentle and protective he can be.

First Impressions. He seems to be a bit of a bum since he doesn’t have a purpose in life or a goal. He also owes a lot of money to a lot of people and spends most of his time running away from them. However, he makes these hilarious comments because he’s really witty and sarcastic. Overall, he’s a nice guy despite his smart mouth.

First Impressions. He’s an absolute gentleman because he’s respectful to everyone he meets despite being in a high position as the leader of a group of holy knights. He even helps the villagers with their daily work. He has a serious personality and he’s only marginally better than Kirite at receiving compliments.

First Impressions. He seems to have a protecting-people thing going on and it probably has something to do with his past. It’s never revealed as to what happened but it seems like he was alone or by himself at some point and he couldn’t protect someone or a group of people. He’s a typical serious character who doesn’t show much emotion at all and is easily embarrassed when people point out that he’s smiling or compliments him. He used to be part of the military guard but seems to now be working as a mercenary. He’s very talented with his sword and so he has the nickname of “Kirite of the Flash”.
